Well, a man come on the six o`clock news
Said somebody`s been shot, somebody`s been abused
Somebody blew up a building
Somebody stole a car
Somebody got away
Somebody didn`t get too far, yeah
They didn`t get too far
Grandpappy told my Pappy, `Back in my day, son
A man had to answer for the wicked that he done`
Take all the rope in Texas
Find a tall oak tree, round up all of them bad boys
Hang them high in this tree
For all the people to see
[chorus]
That justice is the one thing you should always find
You got to saddle up your boys
You got to draw a hard line
When the gun smoke settles, we`ll sing a victory tune
We`ll all meet back at the local saloon
We`ll raise up our glasses against evil forces
Singing, whiskey for my men and beer for my horses
We`ve got too many gangsters doing dirty deeds
Too much corruption and crime in the streets
It`s time the long arm of the law put a few more in the ground
Send `em all to their Maker and He`ll settle `em down
You can bet He`ll set `em down, cause
[chorus 2x]
